We live in a sci-fi dystopia.

Now this is a boring dystopia -- make a halfarsed attempt to "help" mentally exhausted call workers rather than giving them the power to punish abusive customers or to actually fix whatever corporate-level fuckery made them that way in the first place.

It's so absurd it doesn't sound credible?

Like any idiot manager can understand that being shown a photo of your wife and kids after being shouted at by a customer for the nth time today isn't really going to help.

It's also incredibly insulting for call centre staff. Imagine encountering real problems with bank policy et cetera and having a computer try to placate you with a nice soothing picture.
